If you don't have a tight budget, I would suggest: airbagindustries.com, happycog.com, blueflavor.com or 31three.com - they are all well known designers / design studios and do great work.
If you're looking for "cheap" work, you could visit FreelanceSwitch.com and post on their job board or get involved in their forum and try to find someone that way. Also SitePoint.com allows you to hold contests to pick the best work, though most good graphic designers stay away from the contests because it is considered unprofessional to submit work on spec.
I am a designer myself, and so I know who they are because they are very active in the design community, I have interacted with some of them, others I have simply heard good things about.
They are all "leaders" in design, many have written books that are widely available in bookstores, etc.
You can look at their portfolios and get a sense of the broad range of products / services they have completed designs for.

Are you basing your recommendation on first-hand experience, second-hand experience, or just general reputation?
